Modifying a Truck to Transport an Alberg 30

I read the message of Scott Lynds.
I think i have an interesting answer for him.

There is an Alberg 30 for sale with a truck on which the boat is put on.
This truck has been bought used and converted specifically for transportation of the boat.
This has been used during 4 or five years to bring an Alberg 30 from Quebec city (Canada) to Florida and back.

The boat has a new Yanmar 27 that has been used for about 50 hours,
Now, this boat is on the truck since 3 or 4 years, unused.

What is the general concencus on the best vehicle a person could
reasonably tow a 30 for a long distance. What is the average owner
using? Is a 3/4 Ton 4x4 up to the task to haul one.....say 1000 miles. I
would appreciate any input as I have decided an Alberg 30 is the boat I
would ultimately like to own for offshore sailing here in Nova Scotia,
and it looks like I may have to venture far afield to find one. Hence, I
am in need of a suitable trailer, and my next vehicle (if pratical)
should be one to make the journey. I just recently hauled a Catalina 22
back from Lower N.J with my Dodge Caravan and it made the trip without
any problem (the van that is, the trailer is another story!!).
